Nepal Charity Delivering On Pledge To Rebuild An Entire Village

Less than
three weeks after promising to rebuild an entire village in Nepal, Perthshire
Charity Bring Back The Smile To Nepal’s ambitious project is well under way.

The
charity’s founder, Anna Gurung, visited the remote village of Archanbas during
her recent visit to Nepal.

“Archanbas”,
Anna explained, “is an extremely remote village in Northern Central Nepal. It
sits on the top of a steep hill and is very difficult to reach. The people
there have received no help since the earthquake and had very little prospect
of any. They still showed me so much warmth and hospitality though, it was
amazing.”

The
charity immediately set about sourcing the necessary materials and arranging
the challenging transportation required to deliver to the village.

Within
days, work on the first house had begun. The whole community, even the
children, turned out to help.

“The
wifi is patchy and slow, so we weren’t sure how long it would be until we received
some pictures. So we were delighted when the first photographs arrived. As you
can see, work is well underway and we hope to have the entire village
completed, before the advent of the monsoon season in late October / early
November.”

The
charity would like to thank everyone who has helped and donated in the year
since the earthquake.
